Can you try to install vzctl first... Code: apt-get install vzctl ... and then (in a second step) all other packages?
No Hi Falko. Thanku for taking the time to replay my post. I did as you told me to try and this is the result. Code: root@Vps:~# apt-get install vzctl Reading package lists...

Can you run Code: modprobe vzmon and try again? Can you post your /etc/apt/sources.list? I'm under the impression that you're using multiple repositories.
A quick note aside. I recommend you installing the official OpenVZ kernel/tools like described here: http://wiki.openvz.org/Install_kernel_from_RPM_on_Debian_6.0 Note that they missed ploop-lib and libcgroup (http://download.openvz.org/utils/libcgroup/) which you need to download/build the same way like the other packages. Why? Well, I can't tell you from a very technical view but: - you'll get ploop support (container in a single file) (this has many benefits) - latest versions of all packages needed for openvz - I got better general performance (e.g. less resources idle on node) However, keeping those packages up-to-date is more complicated as you have to rerun these steps every time a new package is released. I'm currently checking if alien builds packages are "based on the current system" or if a .deb built with alien is valid on any other machine with the same architecture/system - in that case, I'm going to try to put a repo online.
